Clean, well set-up hostel on the Elberadweg. Was in 10-bed dorm; felt spacious and nice lounge area adjacent. Friendly staff, also good coffee - much enjoyed sitting in the garden basking in the sunshine.

“Nice stay at the hostel”
Everything is very standard for an hostel. Position is great, very close to Bastei bridge (you need to cross the river by ferry, but the hostel provide you with the pass to have the ferry for free).

“Perfect place to stay”
The staff was kind and welcoming, they even let us check in several hours before their official check-in. Other than that the hostel has a great location if you want to go hiking and explore the beautiful landscape. They even offer free ferry tickets. We don’t have any complaints

Very friendly place, the way hostels used to be. Beautiful location. It has a kitchen if you want to cook or there is a restaurant just a kilometer away.

“Amazing stay for travellers!”
Amazing hidden gem! The facilities were really clean and they went the extra mile to make us feel welcome. They helped us with all our queries and it felt like we were staying with family. We had a pizza party in the evening, they were extremely generous with everything.
